This public procurement record has 1 release in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The University of Dundee has completed a procurement process titled "Provision of Service, Maintenance & Repair of Teledyne CombiFlash Systems". The contract, focused on the education sector, involves services necessary for maintaining and repairing systems within the University's Faculty of Life Science, located in Dundee. This was an award procedure without prior publication due to technical reasons, with Teledyne ISCO being the sole supplier chosen. The contract was signed on 27th January 2026, with a value of £107,000. The key parties involved include the University as the buyer, Teledyne ISCO as the supplier, and Dundee Sheriff Court as the review body, ensuring accountability in the process. The procurement method implemented was limited, which streamlined the process by not requiring a competitive bid call due to the lack of technical competition.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in scientific equipment maintenance and repair, highlighting the importance of strong technical expertise and established supplier relationships within niche markets. Companies, particularly those categorised as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), that have the capability to provide specialised servicing for sophisticated scientific equipment can look forward to similar opportunities as universities and research institutions increasingly focus on maintaining and upgrading their equipment infrastructure. By understanding the requirements and procurement methods, businesses can better position themselves to meet the needs of public sector clients, particularly those in the education and research sectors.
